Her Interview

Ten minutes with Tiffany

01What do you attribute your success to?

The people that I've been fortunate enough to be surrounded with and working with, I think, you know, and my mother, to be honest, she's pushed me and guided me through this whole entire process of my career and growing my family has always been supportive in that way, but my teams that I work with are the most remarkable people that I've ever been blessed to be around. They truly care, they're passionate, and they do the hard things, and that is really, I think, what attributes is that I just am lucky enough to come across paths of some really remarkable people.

02What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?

I think the best career advice that I ever received was to be myself, and never leave a door never just walk past an open door. Like, always at least pop your head in and see if it's something that would be interesting, to you. Don't be afraid to ask the questions. And also, like, have humility and know that you're going to make mistakes. ... have confidence in yourself that you are capable of doing all the things that you want to do, but also have the humility to, admit and understand that you may not have all of the right answers.

03What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?

There are never enough resources for what we do. There are a lot of people that we work with who don't have insurance or means to continue to get help... funding is always difficult... stigma. There's so many people who are struggling with the stigma of mental health or substance use, and so it stops them from seeking out help... social media has helped with that, and hurt with that a little bit, because everybody can diagnose anything now. But it also has raised awareness...

04What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?

Well, family. I have, between my two husbands and myself, I have 8 children, so I have 3 biological children, and they're all girls, so I think Being a good role model to them. And, I mean, really to anybody who's in this field of just what does good, kind, compassionate care look like is something that I really value. So humility, family, honesty are really the way that I lead, and I think that are the most important to me.
